Orchard Road is a road in Singapore that is the retail and entertainment hub of the city-state. It is regularly frequented by the local population as well as being a major tourist attraction. Often the surrounding area is known simply as Orchard.

 

Orchard Road is a one-way street. It starts at the junction with Orange Grove Road which is the location of the Orchard Hotel. It then stretches southeast across the Scotts Road/Paterson Hill junction, Orchard MRT Station, Bideford Road, Somerset MRT Station, Central Expressway, Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station, and ends at the junction with Handy Road (just before Prinsep Street), where it becomes Bras Basah Road. It has an extensive underground infrastructure, including underground pedestrian walkways between the malls running underneath the street and also other streets in the vicinity. The numbers actually begin at Handy Road and end at Orange Grove Road.

Technical Details: SOOC..Does a complete static scene would favor a highly clean sharp ISO set @ 50? So I try it too....ha ha. Technically, many deem no differences between the benchmark of iso 100 to iso 50, those number game fair each other pretty well here on the Canon EOS 5d mark2. This probably a terms to mark individual camera's manufacture look superiorly different with terminology.

1. Taking pictures a tool (camera), not a photographer.

2. The choice of tool limits the possibilities.

3. Experience allows him (instrument) less and less to limit their capabilities.

4. The ability to see is given only when the observer allows ...

5. The moment of observation is the real find ...

6. Training and mastering it defies. Training leads to poor imitations of the original.

7. Often the result should ripen, like wine. Although time is the understanding of the mind, therefore it is very speculative.

8. The meaning of all this is the process!

9. Let it be!

The Sambar (Rusa unicolor) is a large deer native to southern and southeast Asia. Although it primarily refers to R. unicolor, the name "sambar" is also sometimes used to refer to the Philippine deer (called the Philippine sambar) and the rusa deer (called the Sunda sambar). The name is also spelled sambur, or sambhur.

The AMX-10 Vehicule d'Observation d'Artillerie (VOA) is variant of the AMX-10P that has been equipped with a new turret for artillery spotting duties. The vehicle has only a single machine gun as self-defense, but sports cutting-edge systems in support of its mission. Laser rangefinders, telescopic optics and powerful radios allow the VOA to pinpoint hostile formations or strongpoints and call down the thunder.

Hydra es animal inmortal de movimientos lentos, pero necesita alimentarse para vivir. Sólo el empleo de un agente inmovilizante y la presencia de algún mecanismo que sujete la presa a los tentáculos, podría conventir en carnívoras a las hidras. La eficacia de las armas de Hydra está probada porque, a pesar de su lentitud, es absolutamente carnívora y puede capturar sin ningún esfuerzo a los pequeños animales que orbitan veloces a su alrededor .

 

Las sofisticadas armas de Hydra se disparan en un instante, rápidas como un destello. Son los nematocistos. Aparecen dentro de unas estructuras abultadas que se disponen en sus tentáculos. Los nematocistos están constituidos por una cápsula, su contenido amorfo, una tapa y un tubo invertido que puede presentar diferentes formas. Cuando el nematocisto se dispara, el tubo invertido se evagina y el contenido de la cápsula se elimina.

 

El tubo que se dispara y su extremo, con frecuencia están recubiertos de púas como si se tratase de minúsculos arpones. En este grupo de animales se han descrito hasta 18 tipos de nematocistos diferentes. Los nematocistos aturden, paralizan o matan a las presas o a los enemigos, envuelven el alimento y lo sujetan con los tentáculos, además de realizar otras funciones que no se conocen todavía en detalle, algunos de ellos penetran en la superficie de la presa e inyectan una sustancia tóxica paralizante o mortal para sus víctimas.

 

Resulta soprendente que los nematocistos parecen tener vida propia, actúan con independencia del sistema nervioso y para ser eficaces deben actuar en el momento oportuno y en la forma más conveniente. Pueden modificar su umbral de respuesta a lo largo de la vida de la Hydra o según cambien las condiciones en su entorno...no es extraño que las hidras tengan ese temperamento pausado y tranquilo, lo confían todo a su armamento, que piensa y decide por ellas, dándoles la vida...armas de Hydra

 

Hydra es un pólipo solitario, muy conocido en los libros, pero del que existen escasas citas en nuestro país, donde sólo parecen estar presentes dos especies, la de hoy, Hydra vulgaris, que se cita como novedad para el Lago de Sanabria e Hydra viridissima, de menor tamaño y muy característica por su intenso color verde debido a la simbiosis que establece con algas del género Chlorella.

 

Hydra vulgaris suele estar presente entre las algas, en aguas con carga de materia orgánica. En el Lago de Sanabria su presencia parece estar asociada al deterioro de los fondos, como consecuencia del enriquecimiento en nutrientes por vertidos urbanos, que las administraciones han decidido resolver, persiguiendo y acosando a quienes lo denuncian.

 

Hydra vulgaris se cita por vez primera para el Lago de Sanabria (Zamora) y ha sido fotografiada a 50 aumentos con la técncia de campo oscuro, y descubierta y recogida por Laura, Mª José y Tomás en los fondos, junto a la Isla de Moras, a 5 metros de profundidad en una muestra recogida el día 19 de abril de 2015 desde el catamarán Helios Sanabria, el primer catamarán construido en el Planeta propulsado por energía eólica y solar.

I am a full-fledged and unrepentant coffee addict. By coffee, I mean COFFEE, not six creams and eight sugars, double whip, mocha frappucino coffee - rich, dark, bitter black coffee brewed carefully from masterfully roasted beans (don't think I'm too snobby, I don't begrudge anyone their preference - my wife uses flavored creamer). I unashamedly attempt to share (spread) my addiction with others (Mike). This turns out not to be so hard, because Mike lives in the same neighborhood as the best coffeeshop in Chicago. Now, before you get upset, I realize that there are better bistros, cafes, restaurants, and little out of the way spots where you might prefer to get caffeinated (having just been introduced to the Z&H cafe in Hyde Park - I may have another favorite to add to the list). However, it cannot be argued that you can get a better tasting cup of black coffee anywhere in the city. Imagine Starbucks when it was just a little place in Pike's Place Seattle - the owner makes no compromises when it comes to quality. When we're finished traipsing around the city early on a Sunday morning, we (or I if it happens I'm alone - yes I'm that hooked) always stop by for a cup.

Una climatología más bien mala, un tremendo dolor de espalda, mucho trabajo, y ganas de practicar mi afición favorita.

 

Manos a la obra. En casita, con una tela negra y cualquier objeto que tengas a mano, cámara en trípode, y a practicar iluminaciones.

 

El bodegón es una especialidad que no he practicado hasta ahora, y aunque parece sencillo, cuando te pones a ello comienzas a ver las dificultades.

Acostumbrado a la fotografía de paisajes, donde el escenario está colocado por la madre naturaleza, y sólo tienes que componer con los elementos que tienes ante tus ojos, el bodegón supone un gran reto, porque tienes que crear tú mismo la escena, colocando cada objeto con precisión, teniendo en cuenta formas, texturas, colores, proporciones, fondo, suelo, iluminación.

Las posibilidades son infinitas, y es necesario realizar un gran esfuerzo de creatividad, y al mismo tiempo emplear todos los conocimientos aprendidos para no fracasar.

Y no puedes echar la culpa a nadie, porque todo el proceso está bajo tu control.

Cuando se tiene experiencia, seguro que puedes hacer un bodegón con los ojos cerrados, pero os prometo que he pasado más tiempo colocando manzanitas y tomates que disparando y procesando las fotografías.

Lo cierto es que me ha enganchado, espero ir aumentando mi galería de bodegones (naturaleza muerta que dicen los guiris) poco a poco.

 

La mayoría de los especialistas en bodegones utilizan flashes fuera de cámara para iluminar sus creaciones, pero me gusta más utilizar técnicas de light painting como las que últimamente he practicado en exteriores, con linternas.

Pintar con luz un bodegón me parece mucho más sencillo, práctico y barato que usar flashes con difusores, disparos remotos etc. Ese tipo de iluminación de estudio está bien para retrato, donde tienes un modelo que está vivo (y se mueve).

Pero si lo que tienes son dos cuchillos y un tomate, o una piedra, no van a salir corriendo, ni se van a aburrir de verte alrededor con tu linterna.

La mayor ventaja de usar linternas es que puedes ver los efectos de la luz en distintas posiciones, con las sombras proyectadas, brillos, etc en tiempo real y antes de hacer el disparo.

Una vez tienes claro cómo vas a iluminar, luz apagada, modo bulb y a pintar con la linterna (un poco de luz ambiente, una luz más intensa en un punto concreto, perfilando los bordes de un objeto, etc... Los resultados son fantásticos, os invito a probarlo. Todo el mundo puede hacerlo en su casa. Sólo hay que superar que los de casa te tomen por loco cuando comiences a montar el chiringuito (pero seguro que no se sorprenden; ya conocen tu locura......)

My first book Figures Noires

This is a project that I worked on mainly in February 2017, but didn’t release until June. Initially the bulk of the Game Boy Color functionality was designed in LEGO Digital Designer, and the game cartridge was created via trial and error. I halted on releasing this whole project in the spring since I was focused on numerous other projects, in addition I ran into some problems with my professional career which shifted attention away from LEGO building. I found a new freelance job in late April, and thus resumed production of this project.

 

By May, some of the major issues involved fitting the game cartridge into the Game Boy’s back, making articulated hands/fingers, refining the game cartridge’s size, and finally creating a removable battery case for the bottom. In between these engineering obstacles, I gradually worked on my Nickelodeon MOCs and some stop-motion animation tests. Another major issue was the lack of available pieces in lime green: this forced me to alter the ascetics to conform to the proper pieces I could use. For example, certain sizes of tiles in lime green were expensive and in limited quantities, whereas some small, rare pieces don’t exist in lime whatsoever. I was considering making the Game Boy yellow — since the Game Boy Color came in a variety of colors — but wanted to make it appear in a more iconic, jarring color as opposed to something basic. It’s for this same reason that I had trouble building my Game Boy Advance “Vantage” in rare purple pieces, as opposed to going through the cheap route of making it in a primary color.

 

I actually constructed two games to accompany this model: I did in fact build a yellow clone robot, but wasn’t able to find high-res photos of the Pokémon Yellow cartidge to make custom labels. Thus, I’ve omitted the yellow robot and only used the light grey one with a Pokémon Silver label. The label for Argentum was provided by one of my Instagram followers @gameboyswag: I adjusted it a bit in Photoshop, printed it on glossy photo paper, cut it up, and glued the print outs to the outer tiles of the cartridge.

 

I also spent a great deal of time coming up with a name for the Game Boy Color itself — in fact, I didn’t decide on a name until right before I exported the promotional video. I chose Prismatis since it’s a conjugation of the ancient Greek root word for prism. The working name for the robot was “Chroma” — and most of my photos and video footage for this project are still labeled with that name. Argentum is of course the Latin word for silver.

 

Prismatis and Argentum both don’t contain weapons, aside from the two battery rockets. Quite frankly I didn’t feel like designing new guns for the robots or anything, so just use your imagination and pretend they can store a variety of arsenal in their subspace storage pockets à la Transformers. To be fair, my mightiest LEGOformer Ultra Hexacon the N64 doesn’t contain any external weapons either, and relies on a shoulder-mounted cannon built into the console.
